i use mine almost daily since i got one in, i think, 2021 and it's still in good shape. no issues with anything sticking and I only cook on med heat and wash it only after it's cooled completely.
I'd suggest keeping the cast Iron, I've had my Crofton for a few years and it's great. It holds up to low, slow braises in the oven with acidic tomato based recipes where I start by browning the meat on the stovetop high and quick. It's super durable.
To add to this, cast iron or stainless steel is definitely the way to go with cookware! Any "coated" pan will have that coating break down way before the actual pan, rendering it useless essentially.
There's a learning curve to cooking in/cleaning them, but it is so worth figuring out to have pans that will last forever.
I've also had mine for about a year and it's held up great for me, as well. Still super nonstick. I use it 1-2x a week. Just gotta be careful to not use metal utensils, hand wash, and only cook on medium or lower heat.
They have these in our stores already and i thought they were cute but when I picked them up, I immediately put them back down. They felt so cheaply feeling made and were so light. As someone who adores cast iron, stay with cast iron, but then again I am bias haha.
It’s a dupe of the Our Place Always Pan. It’s a nice non stick that has held up well, but I use it infrequently, maybe once a week.

About how deep is it? Doesn’t say in description
Like 2.5 inches

If it's a clone of the Our Home Away Pan, expect a 6 month lifespan of the non stick capability.
i've had mine for over a year and it's still in good shape. i cook on it daily.

yep, i only cook on med heat, wood utensil, clean it when it has completely cooled down and only use a non-abrasive sponge on it.
I’m glad I passed on it. I went to check it because of the hype and it didn’t seem like it would be worth it for someone who cooks often.
We love ours. Use it every time we cook. Had it for over a year now, still as good as new.
I mean… looks cute?

I waited for it to go on sale last year and grabbed it for $15. It has been worth it.
I bought one last year, and it's held up well so far.
Mine has held up fairly well. But the handle is cracking and outside of the pan is stained.
We love ours, we’ve had it over a year. Zero issues
The color. The end.
I got two OXO pans at goodwill for $8 total. I'll stick with goodwill. I would never spend $25 on a frying pan. that's insane.
I love Goodwill, but you never know what you're getting.
The answer, is in the name.
are these back in the bullshit aisle rn?
Yep
